Detached National Expert: Responsible for research supporting,
evaluation, developing and real-time testing of a pre-operational
European flood alert system with 1 to 10 day lead-time, focussing on the
major trans-national river basins and to set up flood defence and
mitigation plans for these basins through scenario modelling of the
effects of engineering measures, land-use change including regional
development (e.g. urban expansion) and climate change effects on flood
risk. Responsibilities also included:
Development of mathematical methodologies in automatic parameter
calibration and in the different area of hydrology and
hydrometeorology. Computer software development for different purposes
like automatic model calibration; automatic variogram, and
uncertainty analysis for estimation high resolution meteorological
fields; hydrologic data assimilation with the ensemble Kalman-filter; and many useful utilities.
